Woman accused of stealing massive amount from Offaly supermarket

A WOMAN will contest a charge alleging the theft of €1,441 worth of goods from Tesco in Tullamore, the local District Court heard.

Melissa Joyce (32), Kilshane Drive, Finglas, Dublin 11, appeared before Judge Alan Cody last week accused of committing the theft of assorted household goods on September 24 last year.

Her barrister, Aine Rush, BL, said Ms Joyce would be pleading not guilty.

Judge Cody scheduled a hearing for May 23 next.
